Association between body composition, sarcopenia and pulmonary function in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive and irreversible airflow limitation. Different factors that modify pulmonary function include age, sex, muscular strength, and a history of exposure to toxic agents ...

Genomewide Association Study of Severe Covid-19 with Respiratory Failure

New England Journal of Medicine, 2020
Background There is considerable variation in disease behavior among patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19). Genomewide association analysis may allow

Lower or Higher Oxygenation Targets for Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2021
BACKGROUND Patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in the intensive care unit (ICU) are treated with supplemental oxygen, but the benefits and harms of different oxygenation targets are unclear.

Respiratory failure

Medicine, 2004
The respiratory system has two principal purposes - to maintain adequate arterial Pao2, and to regulate arterial Paco2 and thereby maintain a stable acid-base state. Both are necessary to sustain normal tissue metabolism. Respiratory failure can be defined in two ways: •failure of oxygenation, resulting in Pao2 < 8.0 kPa•failure of ventilation ...

Adherence to CPAP Treatment: Can Mindfulness Play a Role?

Life, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is considered a chronic disease that requires long-term multidisciplinary management for effective treatment. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is still considered the gold standard of therapy.

ERS clinical practice guidelines: high-flow nasal cannula in acute respiratory failure

European Respiratory Journal, 2021
Background High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has become a frequently used noninvasive form of respiratory support in acute settings; however, evidence supporting its use has only recently emerged.

Combination of oximetry and sleep questionnaires as screening tools for CPAP initiation in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

Pulmonology, 2019
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) is a cause of high morbidity and mortality so diagnosis and treatment is essential. Questionnaires and oximetry have been used for OSA screening.Aim To evaluate the clinical utility of different sleep ...
